This is a multi-sectoral nutrition action plan which guides the implementation of a nutrition-specific, nutrition-sensitive and enabling environment for nutrition interventions as directed by the conceptual framework of malnutrition and the primary health care model.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

The workshop was graced by the County Executive for Health Services, Dr. Abraham Serem, represented by the Chief Officer for Health Preventive & Promotive Services, Dr. Paul Wangwe, County Director of Health, Dr. Evans Kiprotich and Mr. Wyclife Abade, the Program Officer at Helen Keller International.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
